Way Out, The

Alex Romero (Jonny Beachamp) delivers pizza and hopes to one day be a successful singer-songwriter. The trouble is, he's broken from childhood trauma and has difficulty staying sober. After the death of his volatile father, Alex inherits the family home and all its bills. Against the advice of his closest friend and sponsor, Veronica (Sherri Shepherd), Alex takes in a charming and manipulative roommate named Shane (Mike Manning). A trained fighter, Shane sees how shut down Alex is and takes him under his wing, teaching him to stand up for himself. Shane's relentless style leads Alex down a dark and violent path that could jeopardize not only his sobriety, but his life - and the lives of those he loves. From writer-director Barry Jay, The Way Out is a hard-hitting gay thriller.
